I took T. to Boss Baby at Burlington. The horse was canceled (presumably due to poor footing from melting ice/mud in the paddock and on the trail), so we went to Cheesecake Factory after. Meanwhile, R. took A. to Costco, where he bought her a very cute springtime dress.

I decluttered A.'s closet, after I realized that last year's costco very cute springtime dress was never worn and definitely did not fit now. I packed up a bunch of things to send along to the next little girl who might enjoy very cute clothing in predominantly pink and purple colors.

I've been digging through several months of blog entries in an effort to reconstruct how I've been cleaning and decluttering since summer, when the cleaner was deteriorating and then was no longer with us. Over and above the obvious (boy, I don't consistently note down what I do -- I try, but I don't), it was interesting seeing the entries in which I described efforts to run roomba and how that failed.

I finished reading (the abridged/condensed and illustrated picture book adaptation of) Swiss Family Robinson to A. She really liked it. R. bought her a box of My Little Pony books. Those may be next, altho I may lobby for Land of Oz.

ETA: I also made a reservation that was involved enough people that the restaurant suggested one of their semi-private spaces and then said I'd need to sign a contract with a food and bev minimum. So that's kind of exciting -- I've done it before, but it has been a while. This is for a family reunion dinner.
